That is true - at the same time you want people to understand where you are coming from you have to understand where those people are also coming from. like myself, growing up in jersey close proximity to nyc - watching news everynight where someone got shot here and got shot there, obvioulsy paints a picture of guns = bad.
i dont have much experience with guns personally and the ones i have had were not so good. i do however one of these days want to shoot one in a controlled environment like a pa range or something and possibly own one for when i have children (especially a daughter) for me the gun thing will be something i will just want to do. others just see it as a tool to kill and that is something people will have to understand.
yea i know those people
they're called close minded sheeple
the tv tells me guns are bad so i believe them ...
and for that matter, this is why america is great. a small group in a area where guns arent welcome dont get to dictate the rules for everyone ... usually.
AND like they say, how many times does someone report a crime that never happened? the news never reports how someone ALMOST got mugged or came CLOSE to being raped only to be saved by a gun
